      In this song, it obviously has fast tempo, but Brian May's heavy guitar solo, Roger Taylor fast drumming with the double bass, and the bassline, ofc, makes it heavier.

      Daytripper N7 Agree!! Queen is still performing and despite the fact that Adam Lambert is an excellent vocalist and the new lead singer for the band, which the existing band members never thought they would ever have after Freddie died, When they go on tour the fans still want to hear something from Freddie. I don’t think that Adam Lambert would feel disrespected at all because he never imagined in his wildest dreams that he would ever play with this band and be able to sing with them, much less be accepted as their new lead singer. The people that grew up with Queen & The younger people who have heard their music but weren’t even born when they reach their peak of popularity, stillness Freddie. I do, too!! I miss his voice and I miss his facial expressions and that freaking laugh of his. He was such a goofball and then he could be this asinine perfectionist who was going to have it his way.. had he not been like that, bohemian Rhapsody would’ve never made it on the radio. Queen now will play a song and at some point during this song, they will Light up the projector With Freddie’s old Live performances joining in with the vocals and the band playing while Adam Lambert isn’t singing for a few minutes. They don’t do that for every song during the concert but they will do it for two or three. I think it’s awesome and it’s so full of hard because it still gives people a piece of Freddie Mercury even though he has long been deceased. That’s part of what made MTV so great and promoted some of these bands years ago. MTV sucks now and all they show is 16 and pregnant. What’s happened to this world?

      got a little story behind this actually. Me and my dad are avid Queen and Highlander fans and the Highlander 30th anniversary was played in Edinburgh and I got 2 tickets for it for me and my dad for his fathers day and the Kurgen (Clancey Brown) was attending it. He did a Q and A at the end of the movie for everyone and I asked him if he could say "Hello Rebecca Glancy, Gimme all your money" over the mic to my daughter and he did. I have the recording of it. She was so chuffed! What a lovely guy he was too, and sad to say, the only one who came to the 30th anniversary from the whole movie.
